A POEM: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.

Right from when i was small

I always see dad beating mom

And i wonder why she never hits back

She was full of scars and fresh wounds

And she covers it when outside the house

She died few years later

I guess her body grew weak and

Got defeated by dads punch

And now i see myself

Beating my wife

The same way dad beats mum

But i don't want to be dad

And i don't want her to die as mom did.
